Rheumatology
For Referring Physicians
We accept referrals from patients and providers nationally and internationally. Prior to your patient’s first visit we ask that their medical records be sent to us as well as the reason for their referral. Please fax the consult with reasons for the evaluation to Toya Phillips or Marisol Garcia at (617) 638-7454.
A working partnership
We know that it is important for you to maintain your relationship with your patient while taking advantage of the specialty care we offer. We provide the diagnostic service you request, recommend a treatment plan and return your patient to your care. Through open, prompt communication, we make your patient’s transitions as smooth as possible. Should you and your patient choose our treatment services, we will keep in close communication with you about your patient’s progress.
Prompt consultations and appointments
Your patient will be seen promptly, and urgent (including next day) appointments can be arranged. Our evaluation will be sent to you by phone, fax, or mail.
Cost-effective care
Our staff is responsive to the challenges of health care today, which call for care to be delivered in an efficient, cost-effective manner. We work with referring physicians to provide an appropriate level of care, without sacrificing quality, and we use resource in a prudent manner, while striving to meet the needs of our patients.
